Hi,
If at more than 20mm, the gestational sac is empty then you have a missed abortion,especially since its also quite a while since your last period.
Please get a repeat scan done and if the findings are same and no fetal pole is seen, then it is best that you go for a medical miscarriage under the guidance of gynaecologist. You will also need to do a few blood test before taking the medication for miscarraige.
Sorry about the bad news.
